(2)if he will set out, region by region, the hospital urgent in-patient waiting list in each health district, together with the number of urgent cases waiting more than a month, the percentage the latter represents of the former and their national ranking in England by that percentage;
(3) if he will set out, region by region the hospital non-urgent in-patient waiting list in each health district, together with the numbers of non-urgent cases waiting more than a year, the percentage the latter represents of the former and their national ranking in England by that percentage.
